It evolved from the even earlier British stage play titled “Gaslight” (1938). It starred Anton Walbrook, Diana Wynyard, Frank Pettingell, and Cathleen Cordell. Should you be further curious, the less known original British version of the “Gaslight” film (1940) was significantly different in style while sharing the same basic plot. I recall his stating that on at least one television interview.įor those who are interested in this genre and have yet to enjoy “Gaslight,” you can purchase the movie through the usual online shopping Web sites (e.g., It is available on Blu-ray, DVD, and other formats.
Parenthetically, I might add my own recollection that “Shadow of a Doubt” was Alfred Hitchcock’s favorite Alfred Hitchcock movie. Perhaps more accurately, it is viewed as a movie inspired by several Hitchcock movies preceding “Gaslight.” A few examples of these American mystery thrillers by Hitchcock are “Rebecca” (1940), “Suspicion” (1941), and “Shadow of a Doubt” (1943). Often, “Gaslight” is inaccurately mentioned as a Hitchcock movie. As for whether the 1944 movie “Gaslight” is an Alfred Hitchcock film, I can be definitive. As for whether you “gaslight” your wife, I have no idea. That would be whether “Gaslight” is actually an Alfred Hitchcock film. On another related matter, I also disagree with my wife. She occasionally claims that I “gaslight” her (i.e., try to drive her insane) as a tactic like Charles Boyer attempted with Ingrid Bergman. On several points, this resulted in a long conversation with my wife. He was obviously referring to the vintage 1944 movie “Gaslight” starring Charles Boyer, Ingrid Bergman, Joseph Cotton, and Angela Lansbury. We heard a guest use “Hitchcock’s Gaslight“ as a metaphor.
Recently, my wife and I were watching a political interview on television (MSNBC).
